***update ***
I'm not going to update the main entry (immediately below) any longer... so just keep posting your players' names here.

Why no more updates? The linkage on those "old site" names doesn't work now. However, I'm sure many of the account names are still good.

So just keep posting your players at the end of the thread so other player-collectors can find you.

Later this year, we will have another Super Collectors issue of &lt;i&gt;Beckett Baseball &lt;/i&gt; where we profile collectors whose dedication to a single player goes above and beyond.
We want to find the most outrageous collections -- perhaps one or two per player who we can compare.
One of our first steps, though, is one that has benefits to users here.
We're going to start a fresh BASEBALL-ONLY player collector list. While only the most outrageous collections will make it into the magazine later this year, everyone can let other collectors know who they are looking for.
Post who you collect -- and perhaps some quick stats on what you have. As comments are left, we'll compile the list here.
Example: I actively collect &lt;b&gt;Nick Swisher&lt;/b&gt;, anything related to the &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Major League&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; movies and, to a lesser degree these days, &lt;b&gt;Jose Canseco&lt;/b&gt;. (But that's just for baseball.)
For example, for Canseco I own 167 copies of his 1986 Donruss Rated Rookie -- along with one counterfeit version. My favorite card might be his 1983 Fritsch (first minor league card), which I only own 17 copies of. (Always need more! Ha.)
For Swisher, I own 22 1/1s, 88 certified autograph cards (some mem, some not) and all kinds of other stuff including about a dozen other signed items including a game-used batting helmet, two game-used jerseys and eight game-used bats. I'll spare you any more card/memorabilia stats for now -- perhaps I'll include them in the issue when it arrives later this year.
Right now, though, let us know who you collect and what you've got... we'll update the list up top here on occasion

Wow, my griffey collection has doubled since i posted this. Crazy. Id like to include felix hernandez now as well

My main collection is of Griffey Jr.. I only have 541 different cards of him but that includes:
47 mem
38 autos (and counting)
69 serial # cards
and 8 cards that don't have a value in the beckett online guide. not huge compared to some others here but maybe a minor fascination... also lhave a bat, bambino bear, helmet and an early 90's baseball signed by junior. several bobbleheads, one of those "painted" home plates. a slew of jerseys and various other knick knacks
